In the beginning,God created theheavens and theearth.

Genesis 1:1

So God created manin His own image; inthe image of God Hecreated him; maleand female Hecreated them.

Genesis 1:27

History of ManEvolution begins with the assumption that

man has evolved from ape-like creatures

Pick your relative

The Bible teaches that God

created man

The Real Science

• All the scientific advancements from thetime of ancient cultures throughPythagoras, Aristotle, Isaac Newton,Gregory Mendel, Hoffmann, StephenHawking and so on.

• All the technologies from the invention ofwheel, pulleys, clocks, photography,calculator, computer, electricity and so on.

The Reel Science

The question of origins

Where do we come from?

Where are we going?

and so on.

God’s positioning of man

God so loved the world that …even when wewere dead in trespasses, made us alive togetherwith Christ, (by grace, you have been saved)and raised up together and made us sit togetherin the heavenly places in Christ Jesus.

Ephesians 2:5,6

Man’s positioning of man

As the intelligence level of man went up, hedegraded himself from the ranks of mancreated in the image of God to a lowlymonkey.

What is the fact about evolution?

Many of us might think that the theory ofevolution is a scientific theory, a veritablescientific fact that is beyond all doubts andall questions that some stupid, idiotreligious people may ask…………………………….

But, wait a second…..

Is that true?

The Same Evidence but…

What do scientists say about their theory?

Let us not go into the specifics…..

But let us see some of the famousconclusions……

Conclusion No. 1

The origin of life remains one of the great outstanding mysteries of science

Paul Davies,

Physicist,

Australian centre for astrobiology,

Macquarie University, Sydney

Nature Vol.437 dated 06.10.2005

Conclusion No. 2

125th anniversary issue of SCIENCEmagazine posed some 125 interestingquestions under the heading

125 Questions: What don’t we know?

How and where did life on earth arise?

Carl Zimmer

Popular Science Writer

Science Vol.309 dated 01.07.2005

Conclusion No.3

Did this molecule start life? –A simplerorigin of life by Robert Shapiro

Professor Emeritus of chemistry

New York University

Scientific American India

Vol:2 No:6, June 2007

Conclusion No.4

Evolution’s final frontiers We still don’t know what the last common

ancestor of human and chimpanzeeslooked like, where and how it lived…

- Chris Stringer

Department of Palaeontology

Natural History Museum

London

New Scientist India edition dated 01.03.2009

Conclusion No.5

Evolution’s final frontiers …However, the most profound unsolved

problem in biology is the origin of lifeitself….

-Kenneth Miller

Professor of Biology

Brown University

New Scientist India edition dated 01.03.2009

For since thecreation of theworld, God’sinvisible attributes,His eternal powerand divine naturehave been clearlyseen, beingunderstoodthrough what hasbeen made, so thatthey are withoutexcuse.

Romans 1:20

For even thoughthey knew God,they glorified Himnot as God, neitherwere thankful; butbecame vain intheir imaginations,and their foolishheart wasdarkened.

Romans 1:21

Professing themselves to be wise, theybecame fools

Romans 1:22

Who changed thetruth of God intoa lie, andworshipped andserved thecreature morethan the Creator,who is blessedforever. Amen.

Romans 1:25

One more hitch is there…

The world ofscience is an everchanging one.

In 1800s, JohnDalton propoundedatomic theorysaying that atomsare indivisible..

But today, we know that atoms are indeeddivisible into electrons, protons andneutrons

And further more,… we know that protonsand neutrons are made up of quarks

Science is changing

Science is changing

The Bible will not go away

Castle built by a pack of cards

A Cosmic Conclusion

Don’t mix up Bible with anything

Evolution Revolution

Evils of evolution

And most importantly,… the theory ofevolution will ultimately lead you away fromtrue loving God who has wonderful plan foreach one of your life.

Evils of evolution

Evolution is poison

An End

and a Beginning

Don’t Believe me

You can search the truth for yourself…..
